Picnic Time

Let me start off by saying, I heart summer!

My firm recently had a company picnic at a local park. The weather was perfect that day. The girls had THE BEST time ever! There was a face painter, a guy that made balloons, a big bounce house, shaved ice, games, amazing BBQ and so much more.  It was the perfect summer picnic!

Oh, and we completed a couple items off our Summer Bucket List... three-legged race and we had a water balloon fight.

Stick a fork in her because she's done!

Missing Mom

I miss my Mom.  It's still hard to grasp that she's gone.  There is a part of me that still thinks she'll be at the house when I visit my Dad.  It really stinks to miss some one so much.  Oh how I wish she was still here with us.  She beat breast cancer, she was a fighter... I wish I could understand God's plan, but I can't. 

I miss having you to talk to!

Family Game Night - Ladderball Style

The girls and I recently went shopping and Peyton begged me to buy the Ladderball game. I thought it would be fun for all of us, even though it does say 8+ on the box. We decided to open the box on Tuesday night and put all the pieces together.  Once we started playing, I had to remind the girls to be careful when throwing the bolas because they are pretty heavy and could hurt someone. We didn't necessarily follow the official game rules, we were just happy when one of the bolas landed on the ladder.

 So we are marking another item off our 2012 Summer Bucket List... Family Game Night.
